Former Vice President Phelekezela Mphoko on Sunday made a rare public appearance when he attended a ZANU PF rally held at Nkayi Business Centre.
He was among several senior ZANU PF officials who were expelled from the party on allegations of engaging in activities meant to destabilise the Government in 2017.
ZANU PF also recalled Mphoko from the position of Vice President and Second Secretary over allegations of being divisive, a member of the G40 cabal, protecting criminals, preaching hate speech, and behaving in a manner inconsistent with the Office and decorum of the VP.
He was recalled on the day the party also recalled the late former President Robert Mugabe from the position of party First Secretary.
Since he was forced out of Government and the ruling party, Mphoko has not been seen at public events and yesterday it was his first time to appear at a ZANU PF event.
Addressing the ZANU PF supporters who had been bussed to the rally, President Emmerson Mnangagwa acknowledged Mphoko’s presence, saying he was grateful to him for attending the event. He said:
<blockquote>
Former Vice-President Phelekezela Mphoko is here. Undoda lo sakhula sonke siyazana, sasisenza izinto ezinengi kodwa angisoze ngazikhuluma. Ngiyabonga ukuthi namhla ubuye ngapha to support me. I am very grateful he came to support me.
</blockquote>
Mphoko, however, was wearing neither ZANU PF regalia nor a scarf but was clad in casual safari wear.

Mphoko Makes Rare Public Appearance, Attends ED Rally In Nkayi

Former Vice President <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Phelekezela_Mphoko/">Phelekezela Mphoko</a>‘s son, <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Siqokoqela_Mphoko/">Siqokoqela</a>, who was serving a <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/2023/05/04/former-vp-mphokos-son-sentenced-to-20-years-in-prison/">20-year jail term</a> for three counts of raping his 12-year-old niece and escaping lawful custody, has been granted ZWL$200k bail pending appeal by the Bulawayo High Court.
The State did not oppose the bail application, acknowledging that Mphoko has prospects of success on appeal against his conviction.
Mphoko’s legal representative, Thabekhulu Dube of Ncube and Partners, made the bail application.
Mphoko was convicted in early May and he <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/2023/05/16/former-vp-mphokos-son-files-appeal-against-20-year-rape-sentence/">filed an appeal</a> against his 20-year jail sentence for three counts of rape and escaping lawful custody. The appeal was submitted to the High Court of Zimbabwe in Bulawayo by Siqokoqela’s lawyer, Mr Zibusiso Ncube. The appeal claims that the trial had numerous inconsistencies.
The sentence was imposed by <a class="MarkdownLink_linkifiedLink__KxC9G">Bulawayo Regional Magistrate</a>, Mr Elijah Singano, who found Siqokoqela guilty of violating the law by raping, threatening and betraying the trust of the victim’s family. Each count attracted a 10-year jail term, and Magistrate Singano imposed an effective sentence of 20 years for all three counts because sentencing Mphoko to 30 years for each count would be too harsh. Siqokoqela was <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/2022/08/31/former-vp-mphokos-son-arrested-over-rape/">arrested</a> in August last year and fled from <a href="https://news.pindula.co.zw/2022/09/01/former-vp-mphokos-son-remanded-in-custody-over-rape/">police custody.</a>

Former VP Mphoko's Son Granted Bail Pending Appeal In Rape Case

Siqokoqela Mphoko, son of former Vice President Phelekezela Mphoko, has filed an appeal against his <a href="https://news.pindula.co.zw/2023/05/04/former-vp-mphokos-son-sentenced-to-20-years-in-prison/">20-year jail sentence</a> for three counts of rape and escaping lawful custody.
The appeal was filed with the High Court of Zimbabwe in Bulawayo on Tuesday.
Siqokoqela’s lawyer, Mr Zibusiso Ncube, filed the appeal, claiming that the trial had many inconsistencies.
The sentence was handed down by Bulawayo Regional Magistrate, Mr Elijah Singano, who stated that Siqokoqela had violated the law by raping, threatening, and betraying the trust of the victim’s family.
The magistrate sentenced Siqokoqela to an effective 20 years, as each count attracted a 10-year jail term. Magistrate Singano agreed that all three rape counts should be treated as one. He ruled that sentencing Mphoko to 30 years for each count would be too harsh, so he imposed an effective sentence of 20 years for all three counts
<a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/2022/08/31/former-vp-mphokos-son-arrested-over-rape/">Siqokoqela was arrested in August last year.</a> Following his arrest, Siqokoqela Mphoko, who introduced himself as a praying, God-fearing, and family man, fled from <a href="https://news.pindula.co.zw/2022/09/01/former-vp-mphokos-son-remanded-in-custody-over-rape/">police custody</a>.
He later announced that he fled from the police station because he felt the investigation was unfair and influenced by outside forces. He said he was handing himself to the police because he believes in the judiciary system. He thanked his supporters and asked for their prayers.

Former VP Mphoko's Son Files Appeal Against 20-year Rape Sentence

Former Vice President (VP) Phelekezela Mphoko’s son, Siqokoqela, has been sentenced to 20 years in prison for three rape charges and two months for disobeying a court order.
The ruling was made by Bulawayo Regional Magistrate Elijah Singano, who determined that the victim’s constitutional rights were violated during the assaults. Singano said while delivering his ruling:
<blockquote>
Rape remains an extremely serious offence and offenders must be punished. It violates and demoralises the victim. The criminal law and codification act stipulates that for an offence such as rape the courts should issue a sentence of life imprisonment or less.
</blockquote>
Magistrate Singano noted that the age gap between Mphoko and the victim was significant, indicating his lack of morality. Siqokoqela threatened the victim with death if she disclosed the rape, and as she lived in his house, she trusted him as a father figure, which he violated. Singano emphasized that the court must act in the child’s best interests, as the victim’s constitutional rights to privacy, good health, education, and dignity were all violated, with long-lasting effects on the minor.
Magistrate Singano agreed that all three rape counts should be treated as one. He ruled that sentencing Mphoko to 30 years for each count would be too harsh, so he imposed an effective sentence of 20 years for all three counts, plus two months for contravening a court order. Mphoko’s lawyer argued for a lesser sentence due to his client’s medical condition and family situation. The prosecutor argued that the victim would suffer lifelong psychological effects from the assault and that Mphoko violated her right to privacy.

In a series of Twitter posts seen by Pindula News, Mphoko equated voting for ZANU PF to voting for peace, economic freedom and  unity. We present the thread under #VoteZanuPf:
<blockquote>
Zimbabweans there’s nothing in this world that’s better than having peace, unity God’s grace, political and economic freedom. If we learn to tolerate one another, disagree with one another, respect one another views, be patriotic and learn to respect our leaders.
People in Byo, if you want to see proper services delivered in your city, then vote for individuals who can deliver on their mandates. Stop voting on tribal grounds or for deadwood councillors without merit for it leads Byo nowhere. Zw is United, not Divided.
Since Zim became independent, there’s only been one ZanuPf. Since MDC was formed, I have lost count of how many times its top ten have split that party into pizza slices. Today it’s the CCC. After they lose elections it will be CCC-N, CCC-B, CCC-N, CCC-C.

<h2>Accusations:</h2>
Prosecutor Mr Acumen Khupe who was representing the state alleges that sometime from May to August 2022, Mphoko unlawfully and intentionally had sexual intercourse with his niece aged 12 years (name withheld) thrice without her consent knowing that she had not consented to it or realising the real risk or possibility that she might not have consented to it.
Mphoko is also charged with escaping from lawful custody.
The court heard through prosecutor Khuphe that on 30 August 2022, at around 1630 hours and at ZRP Hillside Charge Office, Mphoko was arrested and brought to the charge office for the crime of rape by Assistant Inspector Admire Donha.
Whilst in the charge office he was booked for detention under ZRP Hillside detention book reference number 284/22 and he had signed for his belongings for detention. Said Mr Khupe:
<blockquote>
The accused person requested to get his medication from his motor vehicle which was parked outside the charge office, before he could be taken to the police cells for detention. The accused person was escorted by Constable Chimuka to his motor vehicle, he however jumped into his vehicle and he sped off to unknown destination.

Siqokoqela Mphoko who was represented by Mr Thabekhulu Dube of Ncube and Partners Legal Practitioners later surrendered himself to the police saying he had fled from the police station “because I felt that there was no fairness in my case.

<blockquote>
Good morning to everybody, my name is Siqokoqela Mphoko. A praying man, a God-fearing man and a family man.

Former VP Mphoko's Son Arrested Over Rape

Former Vice President Phelekezela Mphoko’s son, Siqokoqela, has defended his father’s one-and-a-half-year stay in a hotel at taxpayers’ expense.
Mphoko stayed in a hotel for more than a year after he was appointed Vice President by the late former president Robert Mugabe in 2014.
Siqokoqela said the arrangement allowed the government to save a lot of money for taxpayers as his father didn’t have a maid, a lot of security, and electricity bills among other expenses.
He was speaking during an online programme, This Morning on Asakhe, hosted by CITE on Twitter Space on Monday. Siqokoqela said:
<blockquote>
Well, look when I used to go up to Harare I would meet him at the Rainbow Towers so but that was a government-owned hotel.
Having stayed in a hotel now, how much does it cost for him to stay in one room? Do you think this man never wanted to walk out in a garden?
You think he didn’t want to breathe the fresh air, he didn’t want to be on the top floor or something, so that’s no. He was at a hotel.
He stayed in a hotel for about a year and a half or something while they were looking for suitable accommodation for him.
</blockquote>
He said his father had offered to go and stay in his house in Mount Pleasant. Added Siqokoqela:
<blockquote>
But look how much it cost? He actually saved a lot of money for the taxpayers.
The government actually saved a lot of money for taxpayers while he was taking a hotel because he didn’t have a maid, he didn’t have that security around him.
If he stayed in a mansion, you would pay 10 times more than the electricity bills.
</blockquote>
A listener identified as Douglas Mandaza said Siqokoqela was justifying the Government’s profligacy because his father is still benefiting from the system. Said Mandaza:
<blockquote>
His father probably benefited; he is not going to say much. He probably benefited from the new government.
That’s why he still has the security. That’s why he still has the vehicles from the government.
So if he’s eating, you will probably be quiet. Hence he’s coming in here and justifying what the government is doing.

Mphoko's Son Defends Dad's Profligacy When He Was Vice President

The magistrate’s court has ruled that former Vice President Phelekezela Mphoko must stand trial on amended charges.
Mphoko had sought to have the criminal abuse of office charges against him dismissed arguing that he had no power to give orders to the police.
Harare magistrate Mr Trynos Hutawashe dismissed Mphoko’s application to drop the charges adding that trial should proceed. Hutahwashe said:
<blockquote>The accused must stand trial on condition that the State should amend its charges.
He was not an ordinary civilian. He was known by all Zimbabweans and would act as the President when the President was not around. The officer-in-charge at the police station held a junior position to his, and that argument that he had no power to give orders cannot be allowed.</blockquote>
The state alleges that Mphoko visited Harare’s Avondale Police Station where he ordered junior police officers to release from custody of two Zinara bosses – then board member Davison Norupiri and acting chief executive officer Moses Juma who had been arrested for criminal abuse of office.

Mphoko To Take Govt To Court Over Pension

The Mphokos’ lawyer, Professor Welshman Ncube,  last night confirmed to The Chronicle that his clients former Vice-President Phelekezela Mphoko and his son, Siqokoqela are no longer shareholders of Botswana-based Nanavac Investments, trading as Choppies Supermarkets Zimbabwe.
The Mphokos agreed to be bought out of the company to end a protracted ownership wrangle. Ncube said he has since released a joint statement with Choppies Enterprises lawyer Mr Munyaradzi Nzarayapenga notifying the public about the latest development. The statement reads:
<blockquote>We have been instructed by our clients Choppies Enterprise, Phelekezela Mphoko and Siqokoqela Mphoko, to advise the public and all staff of Nanavac Investments trading as Choppies Zimbabwe that on 9 January 2019 the shareholders and directors amicably resolved and settled all issues, matters, cases and disputes between and among themselves so that there are no longer any outstanding between our respective clients, who further advise that the Mphokos have disinvested from Choppies Zimbabwe and have no further interests in the company and its business. Our respective clients wish each other well in their present and future endeavours.</blockquote>
In an interview, Ncube said his clients would be paid for 51 percent shareholding, but could not state the amounts of money involved.

Mphoko No Longer Choppies Shareholder

When contacted by Southern Eye, Phelekezela Mphoko’s lawyer Welshman Ncube said Government has until early December to process the former Vice President’s pension or risk a civil suit.
Said Ncube:
<blockquote>The notice has not yet expired. I do not have the papers with me right now (to confirm the date of expiry of notice), but it expires in early December.</blockquote>
Government acknowledges Mphoko is entitled to his pension but argues he does not deserve full benefits as he did not serve a full term under Statutory Instrument 86 of 2015. SI 86 of 2015 states only a VP who served at least one term in office can enjoy exit packages such as a security officer. However Section 102 of Zimbabwe’s constitution says Mphoko is entitled to benefits as may be prescribed under an Act of Parliament.

<blockquote>Nothing has happened. The government has not yet given the former Vice-President his benefits and pensions. We are still waiting…So, we want to deal with the areas we agree and dispense with that and go to court on the areas that are not agreed.

Mphoko Yet To Receive Benefits, Lawyer Says We Will Go To Court

Former vice president Phelekezela photo has been accused of being a liar by businessman Paul Evans. Evans who fled the country two years ago alleges that Mphoko together with war veteran George Mlala had a part to play in destroying his business Golden Grill Fast Foods. Evans was particularly unhappy that Mphoko had denied any involvement in the matter. Mphoko’s lawyer, Welshman Ncube had said:
<blockquote>He has never been involved in issues to do with Golden Grill and he never supported Mlala . . . And he denies having any conversation with Paul Evans. He says all these are political fabrications directed at him for political motives. He has always acted lawfully and ethically during his time in office.</blockquote>
Responding to Mphoko’s claim, Evans said
<blockquote>That’s a joke, I met Mphoko and some security detail called Sims was also present. Mphoko summoned Mlala to the meeting. He came and I even met Mphoko’s son on that day.
I told him (Mphoko) that Mlala helped those guys steal my business, you got to remember that Mlala was the front man. He basically spoke as the new director of my company. Mlala was the one talking to Mphoko because I am sure he didn’t want to expose his friend. He quickly told me to go to Mlala for recourse and told him they should pay me and abruptly closed the meeting.</blockquote>
Evans has since written a letter to President Emmerson Mnangagwa as he tries to reclaim his business.

Exiled White Businessman Says Mphoko Is A Liar

In an interview with The Chronicle, former War Veterans Minister Retired Colonel Tshinga Dube said that former Vice President Phelekezela Mphoko abandoned him when he was appointed Vice President in 2015, Dube also said that Mphoko ignored his advice and warnings against aligning himself to G40.
Said Dube:
<blockquote>Mphoko was my personal friend; we worked together for a long time in the Zipra High Command. However, when he assumed power, I was disappointed because he surrounded himself with the wrong people who gave him bad advice. He got new friends in the form of the likes of George Mlala. This is where he got things wrong because he involved himself with dubious characters with a very bad history. They misled him into playing factional politics with the G40 people. I think you remember that at one point Mphoko dressed me down at (Zanu-PF Bulawayo provincial headquarters) Davies Hall when he said I should work with the Mlala group and the rest of the G40 cabal or my political life would come to an end.</blockquote>

Mphoko abandoned his old friends when he became VP, ignored warnings against aligning himself with G40

Vice President Phelekezela Mphoko is reported to be making plans to seek refuge in either Zambia or Mozambique. Mphoko is afraid that he will be arrested if he returns home, as he is wanted on charges of obstruction of justice and corruption. Some of the charges stem from the time when Mphoko stormed a police station and ordered the release of then Zinara acting chief executive officer Engineer Moses Juma and board chairman Davison Norupiri who had been arrested on allegations of abuse of office and fraud.  Mphoko argued that their arrest was not justifiable.
Mphoko is still in Japan, where he was when the Zimbabwe Defence Forces (ZDF) seized power in a military takeover a week ago. Mphoko was supposed to have returned on Friday, but because of his fear, he is still in Japan. He is reported to have told the Office of the President and Cabinet (OPC), which is handling his travel arrangments, that he now wants his tickets changed so that he can land in either Zambia or Mocambique. Mphoko’s family is reported to have left the country already for Botswana, where Mphoko has business interests.
A source who spoke to the publication, NewsDay said:
<blockquote>He was supposed to be back in Zimbabwe by Friday, from Tokyo, Japan. But through the OPC, he has requested that his tickets be changed so that he lands either in Zambia or Mozambique. We know he fears arrest because he is wanted for obstruction of justice and corruption.</blockquote>

Brazilian Legend Rivaldo pays courtesy call on Vice President Mphoko

Addressing the white business community after a meeting with them yesterday in Bulawayo, Vice President Phelekezela Mphoko appealed for cooperation.
Said Mphoko:
<blockquote>President Mugabe extended a hand of reconciliation, especially to the white community. I’ve called for this meeting to discuss problems that might be there and come up with solutions so that we work together as a family. This city is not for Zanu-PF alone. Zanu-PF is younger than this city. All political parties are younger than Bulawayo. We’re therefore a family and should work together. Through that window I know we have lot of problems and we’re bottling them. I want us to discuss those problems.</blockquote>
